Spatially Distorted Signaling: How Opinions Against Wind Infrastructure Delay Our Transition to Renewable Energy

This study analyzes the activity of U.S. wind power plants (2000-2016) to understand how population density, income, and anti-wind opinions impacted wind plant operations. The motivation for this project was to investigate these attributes as they related to local resistance against renewable energy developments, in hopes to understand potential delays in our transition to a more sustainable future.
